Rigidity of actions on CAT(0) cube complexes
Abstract: Let G be a group acting non-elementarily by automorphisms on
a finite dimensional CAT(0) cube complex. In a joint work with Indira Chatterji
and Alessandra Iozzi, we prove the non-vanishing of second bounded cohomology
of G with geometrically defined coefficients.
